This Week’s Mail Sack Contains Bacon
In the Bungie Mail Sack this week, Deej addresses the burning question: Is there bacon in Destiny?
I can neither confirm nor deny if swine survived the collapse of the Golden Age. Humanity’s luxury for consuming pork is a mystery that you will have to unlock as a player of the game.
That and many other deep and philosophical questions are answered in the Mail Sack.

FPSStats – Halo 4 Edition
Atothendrew stopped by yesterday with word of an iOS-based Halo 4 stats tracking app, now available (for free) in the Apple Store. There is more info (and some reviews) over at Reddit, if you want to read up before you download. (There’s talk in that thread of similar apps being squashed, presumably by Microsoft although it’s not specified, so if you want a copy, grab it before it’s gone!)(Louis Wu 18:22:00 UTC)

Now Halo Should Have a Defiant Map Pack… Wait…
We here at HBO love video games of all different sorts. One of the games that has a few of us very intrigued is the upcoming open world shooter from Trion Worlds, Defiance. If you follow us over at our sister site, DBO, you might remember us mentioning the project citing an interview with the Executive Producer of the game, as he referenced thoughts on Bungie’s upcoming Destiny title (small open world, huh?). Earlier today, as I was inputting codes online to level up my “Ark Hunter”, I noticed a peculiar emblem for the level I had just attained. Shoulda been Level 7, but still, full circle indeed!(GrimBrother One 17:24:07 UTC)

Podtacular 354: Bulletin Update
Download | Shownotes
This week, Halo is at PAX, are you? If so, you’ll get some big information regarding the next map pack and title update. If not, there’s some tid bits, 343 has given in this week’s Halo Bulletin. Despite their busy schedule, they released a lot of information regarding their PAX schedule, matchmaking updates and a few items we’ll be seeing in the next title update. There are lots of goodies to sort through and they will go more in depth on the future of Halo multiplayer and the next title update on their panel today. If you’re not here to see it, the panel will likely be uploaded to YouTube not long after. No question of the week since I’m co-hostless for this show, but we got a huge response for last weeks. Enjoy
